How to fix PS5 controller loose headphone jack issue (no audio / bad quality)

[@lmAIone]

Thanks for this, i thought my a40 cord was the issue so i ended up getting a new one and then found it was the controller port itself. I used a small corner of paper towel to fix the jack in place, there was a comment here that said to tap on the back of the controller while it’s upside down to tap the jack back in place. Both seemed to help!

Same deal here! Hahhaa

GENUINLY THANK YOU SO MUCH, u don’t even know how much you’ve just helped me I love you bro

[@elishaslichter1432]

If you just get a little piece of paper or even better a piece of a business card, just cut a little piece and put it underneath the actual jack in between the white plastic. Holds it perfectly in place and I have no more audio cut out.

That's very smart man ty

Bro I was so stressed out right now cause this just happened to be I been unplugging and plug-in it in for almost 2 hours and as soon as I read your comment I tried it and it worked 😂😂😂😂 I’m so upset I didn’t think of this.. thank you!!

hey So I had that problem before and u have been deeling that for 7 months, it happend cuz I didn’t see my headphones was stuck on the door and when it happened to me I got so pissed cuz that happened. I searched on how to fix it over and over it didn’t help, I talked to my friends how to do fix this over and over, they didn’t know. After that my mind thought that there was no hope to fix it until. Today I found ur channel, I did the steps, and guess what? IT FIXED THE THING, I WAS SO SPEECHLESS ABOUT THAT, AND BEST PART IS THAT THE PAIN IS OVER. I just wanna say, Thank you…

[@lunialla8988]

God I was LOSING it and I’m too broke to buy a new controller now :’) but this worked!! THANK YOU I literally tried everything possible but knew it was the controller itself

[@aqrawiahmed8059]

thank you man, u saved me from buying another headset

[@SwatDoggie]

I swear its always the 100 less subs channels who fix anything and the channels with alot of subs dont know what they are talking about thabk yoy so much

[@tonymeno563]

Apericiate it man,did the trick thanks!

[@neebwill]

Practical and economical. I agree that doing this instead of buying a new controller. I have purchased several now. Had PS5 since around lauch. The audio jack happened on two controllers of mine. Joystick drift on another two. Trigger spring break on another. I now have 3 spare controllers which have all been cannibalized to feed their parts to a controller, which as of now, has undergone 3 or 4 repairs. I can practically take them apart in my sleep. I had a trigger spring snap less than 3 weeks into a new controller.. Oh, and I've also had to replace the HDMI port on the motherboard and solder PCB traces due to lifted pads on the socket. There really needs to be a purely mechanical device taking off the physical stress - HDMI 2.1 cables are typically thicker and create more strain from curvature of cable alone). Anyways, I digress.... Only thing I ever had to do in several years with a PS4 was dust it out. And one stick drift issue. Hope these are addressed in future hardware revisions.

[@sundelight7410]

I appreciate you taking the time to talk about issues with your PS5 stuff. I been team PS since a youngin so it does hurt to see sony quality control get this bad. It definitely can get better tho I have faith

Could you post a tutorial on how to put the paper on the cord?

[@silkytsunami]

PS5 controllers just suck in general. Mine won’t hold a charger correctly or a headset.

[@M01988]

Thank you very much. I was going to buy a new one. I am from Saudi Arabia

[@pxility]

It works other than the fact that all my audio is in one ear. Is there a way to fix that?

[@ditoo2002]

The paper is probably too thick or covering too much

[@SkyRocket-p4e]

Or that side is broke

[@yosef9793]

Thank you it worked 💙

[@hazfmeneaneke3078]

So you put the paper around the hole then put the earphones in

My sound is only coming out one headphone and it is the controller because I have bought new mic is there a souloution for this?

[@sundelight7410]

Sorry for the late reply. If the solution in the video does not work I would make sure that your headphone jack is clean before trying again. Unfortunately this video is the only solution I can think of aside from taking the controller apart. Separately, if your headphones are connected with a two-way AUX cord, ensure that the ends are being used correctly. Typically one side connects to the headset better, and the other side fits better into the audio input.

[@ttv_wxtraxd]

twist your headset cord until you can tune it to where you can hear out of both sides that's what worked for me

[@ΜιχαληςΜαυριδης-φ8ζ]

How do u put it in do u cover the jack with paper or out a gole in the paper and then put the jack in im confused

[@Shrukin9000]

[@superxtreme1589]

Bro SOMEONE please help me. My PS5 controller is in terrible condition. So when I plug in my headphones to the controller all of a sudden my audio sounds so weird. The music and game audio has certain parts making noise and other parts of the audio are quiet. An example of this is when I listen to music and the beat and background of the music I can hear but the actual lyrics are quiet. When I press the PS home button it sounds different and EXTREMELY MUFFLED. Please reply if you know a solution to this.

[@dejuo1]

prob push it all the way in

[@zsnako5466]

Push it all the way in or try to get a new controller. If that's not an option, get a USB adapter for your jack so you can use a USB port on the console.
